Mixing strength and cardiovascular exercises in the same circuit can be an extremely effective way to improve fitness levels and is always guaranteed to provide a challenging workout. Be sure to prioritize good form and put any big compound lifts at the beginning and allow adequate rest between sets.

This weeks workout takes us to failure and beyond. Working over an extended period of time we take a strength based exercise to failure before completing a cardio based exercise for the remaining time.

This weeks workout utilizes 3 key exercises, hitting the whole body. We work exclusively with bodyweight and aim to perform as many reps as possible until we reach our target of 100 on our most difficult exercise.

Workout Wednesday is back! I can't believe we're already on number 29, that means we've been going strong for 29 weeks!

This week we stick with circuits, you can complete this whole body workout in less than 25 minutes, making it a great option for days where you're pushed for time or at the end of another workout as a finisher.

This week we take a look at 4 key components to achieving any fitness related goal, whether it's training for a specific event, changing your body composition or just improving overall health and wellbeing.

1.Thank you for booking onto one of our New Beginners Course.

The course runs over a 6-week period and has a total of 17 sessions. This equates to 3 sessions a week. We advise people to try and make 2 sessions a week, and all 3 if you can.

In the beginner’s course, you will be introduced to the fundamental techniques of kickboxing. Every session is based around improving your technical ability, aerobic capacity and muscular strength. This combined with increased balance and coordination, flexibility and the concentration that goes into each class will leave you sweating and enthralled.

In all our classes we make sure everyone works at their own pace and assistant instructors are on hand to help out and guide you. At the end of the six weeks, there is an opportunity to take part in a grading for your first belt.

Please note:There is no sparing within these classes. Each session runs for 1 hour.We have gloves you can use during each class but you are welcome to bring your own if you have any. The course costs £140 (for all 17 classes over the 6-week period) or you can pay as you go at £15 per class. (discounts are available if you pay on or before the first night).

2.Thank you for booking onto one of our Tabata classes

Tabata is one of the most effective High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) methods out there. It is a great way to get fit. The traditional Tabata format requires 20 seconds of flat out, heart pumping, 100% effort in a given exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest, this 30-second set is repeated 8 times before you take 1 minute’s rest and move on to the next exercise. Tabata in this format normally consists of 4-6 exercises. All exercises can be modified as needed to accommodate all students.

Tabata takes place on the following days/times:

Monday @ 6:25pm

Tuesday & Thursday @ 8:15pm

Saturday @ 11:00am
